Here are the facts: I have an old ring that is 14 kt weighing in at 3.2 dwt. Today's gold price is…read more$1771.70 per ounce, or in terms of pennyweight (dwt) for 14 kt that is $51.67/dwt. Calculating this out the melt price of the ring would be about $165. Ater the buyer verified the weight and purity (with a gram scale and muriatic acid respectively) he asked me to name a price. So as any good negotiator would do I started at the maximum I could get at $165. He then said how about $126 for the ring? I thought that this was fair since one could expect to get 70-80% of the melt price from a pawn broker, plus he mentioned that they have their own smelter which takes away some of their overhead. So I said, yes I will give it to you for that much. He then paused, made a phone call to someone named Danielle and then after some talk about how my price was higher than the platinum price, he came back with a price of $106! I asked him why then did he offer me $126 only to turn around and offer me something totally different. He then said that if I had more weight in gold to offer then he could offer me the higher price. So I asked him if they buy gold based on a tiered approach. He replied, no. You be the judge. Mine is two out of five.

He made the experience pleasant, did not pressure me at all, and gave me good value for the few items I decided to sell. Also, Baraka Gems uses a nifty little machine to determine gold content, not a scratch test, so my pieces weren't damaged. I had previously visited another company, which did use scratch tests, without warning me in advance. Upsetting! I highly recommend Baraka Gems, and am very glad I found them!

I have been band from a long list of Cash America through out the country, How did I get banned. I guess the last straw I returned a MAC computer which was an Amazon computer. Basically the company did not wipe the computer. I do want to receive a computer with someone's else personal information. When I returned it I got blasted by the store manager. I did not respond other than I stated I wanted a full refund. I never had a problem with known of the store employees I never had a reason to. But this person for some reason wanted that $35.oo fee. After a month I got a later stating I had been banned in just about 12 states. What happened I had several lay aways that the general manager closed all of them. It wasn't a pleasant ending.

Mike was terrific about communicating the status of my project every step of the way. The pendant turned out beautifully and he was also able to put a gorgeous Peridot in it as well!! I'm thrilled with the results. Customer Service and communication are exemplary here. Thank you!!
